We strongly encourage all who are serious about pushing their fighting forward to join us, as there is no better way to progress your art than to learn from top fighters from different areas out of your comfort zone.</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 18px;"><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 18px;">We need to compile a list of those who are interested in joining us -- both in terms of those who will be interested in seats on the bus and those who might be separately driving up to the practice. Please let me know ASAP if you would like a seat on the bus to join us, or if you'd like to join us but will be driving yourself. I need to let our Eastern hosts know how many to expect and we need to plan the charter bus.</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 18px;"><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 18px;">Thanks, and we look forward to a fantastically fun and successful day of fighting!</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 18px;"><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 18px;">In service,</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 18px;"><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="5"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 18px;">Max Von Halstern</span></font></div></div></blockquote></div><br></body></html>
